In case you hadn't noticed, when I created this card I was in the mood for texture and dimension, and lots of it! I started by stamping Poppy three times with Memento Tuxedo black onto Bella's Bestest Paper. I paper pieced her shirt and hat then coloured the rest with copics. I cut out all around her, and yes, between her legs and arms too. I've seen lots of people in blogland cutting out their images and layering it onto a shape so I thought I'd give it a try. Verdict is...I LOVE THIS LOOK!!!! I used my Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder to add a little texture to the white circle before adhering Poppy. I used plenty of pop dots on this card...the flower on her hat is popped once and the flower she's holding is popped twice then I bent up the edges of the petals for even more dimension. I added black Flower Soft to the flower center.

I really wanted to use black ruffled ribbon but I didn't have any, so I created by own by pleating the ribbon and stitching along the top edge. I love the look and it was pretty easy to do!

There's a prize hidden somewhere along the hop so be sure to leave some love for a chance to win! One pre-selected blogger will choose a random winner from the comments on her post, and the winner will receive a $25 gift voucher to Stamping Bella! The winner will be announced on Monday in the Stamping Bella forum on Splitcoast.

OMG! I love your card! You have certainly tended to every single detail from the folded and stitched ribbon, to the dimensional flowers, to the dots, to the glitter, to the bling! Absolute gorgeousness!

About Me

I've been stamping since 2003 when I attended my first Stampin' Up! party. I was hooked right from the start! I was an SU demonstrator for five years, until we moved from Canada to the USA and I couldn't transfer my business. So now I'm stamping for me, using all kinds of supplies from many cool companies! :)

Since I'm computer challenged, I turned to my good friend Nancy to help me beautify my blog. She created my fabulous blog banner. All I did was ask for a bird in it and she did the rest. She even made me a couple of fabulous watermarks too. I LOVE it all! Thanks Nancy!
